Yes, it is absolutely freezing here in LAS. :td:

It's supposed to warm up over the weekend though... when I will be in Chicago. :rolleyes:

Yeah, I am on a miles excursion, 12 hour blow off steam trip, and I know I should have, but didn't check the weather report, so I did not include a warm jacket. I am paying for it now.:(

Officially prohibited. YMMV.

There are even decent paid F fares on CO, BWI - SJC (I think they are HUPs or something).

Good luck to all those flying through IAH today and tomorrow.

You'll need it.

Hope that Steph3n got his upgrades!:-:

On a related note-- I just got Silver (status advance) & am flying tomorrow -- do I have to do anything w/my existing reervation in order to get on the upgrade list? I'm not showing up there, yet! (It's CO728: EWR-DEN).

Were you checked in prior to the status bump? If so you'll probably have to get someone to remove your OP number and put it back in. Or just ask at the counter. You're unlikely to get the upgrade anyways. ;)

I'm listening to Pedro Martinez's press conference on ESPN right now. He's pretty bitter.

No -- not checked in yet -- can't do that until early this afternoon. I appreciate that my chance at an upgrade is pretty slim -- but certainly nothing lost by tryin'!;)

If I may ask, how did you get said credit? Was it during the trip or later with Customer Service?

I've had two DL long DL flights recently but neither of them had operable power.
